AD NUMBER: 2004-14-07MANUFACTURER: BAE SystemsSUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2004-14-07SUMMARY: This amendment adopts a new airworthiness
directive (AD), applicable to all BAE Systems(Operations) Limited
(Jetstream) Model 4101 airplanes, that requires a test for free
movement of the capsule/bearing of the nose landing gear (NLG), and
related investigative, significant, and corrective actions. This
action is necessary to prevent failure of the NLG to extend fully,
which could result in reduced controllability of the airplane
during landing. This action is intended to address the identified
unsafe condition.
